If your dealer accepted 3 units they should've had a bit more thought about it! The F6X, although a great car to drive, is not a big volume seller.Your local dealer took a big gamble and I think he lost... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That'll get him out of one of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the idea, but the final product wasn't up to the FPV standard I don't reckon. Needed some 20's, an interior colour option and tougher styling and it'd be a no-brainer. Parts-bin wasn't enough I guess. Fingers crossed for 2010 seeing FPV have another crack? Or will we be waiting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
